How to use this tool

  1. Enter original text, find, replace with.
  2. Select Update result to view the result.
  3. Check the method and assumptions below before using the result.

The method, explained

Split on the exact case-sensitive search text and join the pieces with the replacement. Matches are non-overlapping.

A WORKED EXAMPLE

Replacing blue with clear in “blue sky, blue sea” gives “clear sky, clear sea” and reports 2 replacements.

What to keep in mind

Search is case-sensitive and literal, not a regular expression. An empty search is rejected; an empty replacement removes matches. Output size is bounded.

Common questions

Are dollar signs special in replacement text?

No. The replacement is inserted literally, including dollar signs and backslashes.

Can I remove a word?

Yes. Leave the replacement empty, but review surrounding spaces and punctuation afterward.
